Thank you. Well, we do recognise why so many ambulance workers have voted the way they did, and the anger and the disappointment amongst so many of our public sector workers at the current time. We believe our emergency services should be fairly rewarded for their important work, but you'll appreciate our current financial settlement falls far short of what's needed to meet the significant challenges faced by public services and by public workers right across Wales. As a Government, we very much value social partnership, and I know the Minister continues to meet with trade unions to discuss a range of issues affecting the workforce.
